In the 1960s, we introduced the Wilmington Brace, which revolutionized the treatment of scoliosis. More recently, we opened the Katzin Diagnostic and Research PET/MRI Center,
which gives Nemours physicians a detailed look at both the structure
and function of a child’s brain — in real time. This system helps identify,
treat and perform research on neurological and behavioral disorders.
In between, we developed the Wilmington Robotic Exoskeleton (WREX), which uses 3D printing to create a lightweight support system for kids with neuromuscular weaknesses, and we were a pioneer in the use of electronic health records with MyNemours. We launched KidsHealth.org, the world’s most-visited website devoted to children’s health,
and we introduced CareConnect, an online video app
that allows families and physicians to conveniently connect face-to-face on smart phones and computers. And we unveiled a digital portal
to help families manage their conditions
and get support and care between doctor visits.
Of course, we have a very good reason for all of these breakthroughs.
It’s all part of our promise.
Your child. Our promise.
